Re: 2nd amend becoming meaningless

All great answers!

Not to negate any current threats to our rights and to applaud those who worked so hard to keep and advance such, but I have a bit of different perspective on diminishing rights, at least in this state.

I can remember when things like "Stand Your Ground" or "Castle Doctrine" were just abstracts, not specific laws to protect you as in being your legal right.

I can remember when traveling with a gun in your car was open to ambiguous interpretation of legal purpose. It was spelled out, but then, it really wasn't. Loaded and within your reach as your right - yeah, get you in jail?????

I can remember when the notion of leaving you property with a loaded gun on your person would not even cross your mind as ever being something available to the public.

So, sometimes we look at things from where we are and not from where we came. Doesn't take away from what we are currently doing, but it does show us how far we have come.
